These What's In The Box films are aimed at a type of retrospective unpacking, opening and revealing of the surprise contents of the pack, plastic toys, cards, stickers, with details of send away offers or packet/panel cut outs and features, including food recipes using cereals and healthy options, offering a nostalgic look at what the offers have been over the years here in the UK and relive your youth

The focus is mainly on the main Breakfast Cereal brands including Weetabix, Kellogg’s, Quaker, Nabisco & Nestle. Its a chance to see what they were like when opened, testing them out and also act as a future archive/history for anyone who wants to relive the magic of youth when you used to rush down to breakfast, open the new packet and hope the gift was one you wanted

I have also started to review new cereals doing taste tests, as they are released and you will find these across a number of the main brands or the playlist

So for those of you who look back in the past with fond memories of Yesteryear and recall mascots such as Kellogg's Coco Monkey, Tony Tiger, Snap Crackle & Pop, Cornelius Cockerel, Captain Rick, Loopy, Honey Monster, Weetgang, Hunger, Quicky Bunny, Chip Wolf, Hunger, Klondike Pete & Pardner then this is for you.

Where ads and commercials are included, these were all shown on usual ITV channels, including CITV, GMTV, POP, Disney, Nick Jr, Boomerang, Nickleodeon, Sky Kids ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5, Carlton, Cartoon Network, Anglia, LWT, Pop Milkshake, SMTV, Boomerang and more
